Find me a better name for this recipe, a crustless quiche? a tart? a frittata? a flan? What even is this? 😭

Okay, let me explain, it's a creamy tofu base like you would use to fill a quiche, topped with shallots and lots of zucchini slices arranged in a spiral. It's very soft and tender, and you can make it with other vegetables too. It's super good for your body... so many benefits! I added a bit of pesto after baking, but you can serve it just like that :)

Steps

Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
In your blender, mix the tofu with soy milk, salt, cornstarch, and your choice of spices: curry, tandoori, Cajun, turmeric, fenugreek, paprika...
In a pie dish, pour a drizzle of oil. Add the blended mixture and spread it evenly across the dish.
Peel the shallot and thinly slice it. Top the flan base with the shallot.
Slice the zucchini into rounds and arrange all the slices in a rosette pattern on the flan base. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a bit of pepper, then bake for 50 minutes. It's ready!
